Chapter 147: A Haunted House!
-----
Gwendolyn's house, the place where she raised Annabelle all this ti, had now beco possessed.
At first, Frank convinced her by telling her that it was for the safety of everyone.
But now that she saw her beautiful house being taken over by countless fused souls, Gwendolyn seed to begin to worry.
"Is this… really okay?" wondered Gwendolyn, as her lips trembled a bit.
"I… Don't know…" said Cathyl with a forced smile.
"Fuhehe, look at your house, Gwen! You will never be alone anymore! Hahahahahaha- GEH!" cried Vheslia, as Gwen gave her a nice smack into her head.
"I'm scared…" said Annabelle.
"I-Is this… the house is alive now?" asked Hilvera.
"This is pretty… crazy…" said Asterion.
"It really is…" said Kai.
"Err… But all of you agreed to it! And with a living house, it will always protect us while being inside…" said Frank.
Inside of Frank's mind, there was nothing wrong with this, but he was not normal at all, he was incredibly insane, in fact.
The actual normal reaction was that of Gwendolyn or Annabelle, there should not be a way for normal folk to accept Undead, and things like these, after all, raising Undead went against the rules of the world, and there was not any Magus known to have ever such a power.
Although Undead Monsters did exist, they were rare except in areas where there were large amounts of Miasma that contaminated wandering souls and converted them into Undead.
However, even then, for most nations, Undead were rare.
Souls wandered the world when soone died, although they would often be absorbed into the Transmigration Cycle of Terra set by an external Transmigration God that exists outside of Terra, it would usually take so hours to a few days for souls to be absorbed into these cycles and then reincarnated into the sa world as soone else with their minds cleansed.
However, due to the influence of Frank and his Death Attribute Charm, he was attracting the attention of many wandering souls/dead spirits, which neglected the Transmigration System set by this external god and ran towards Frank from all around the nation.
Attracted to him like flies over a fresh corpse… or bees over a flower-filled with nectar… or, well, you get the point.
Gwendolyn sighed.
"You're right… we said it was fine… Okay, okay, but tell it to stop moving the windows and to stay still, we want to go to sleep," said Gwendolyn.
"Okay then… Err, what kind of na should I give it?" wondered Frank.
"How about Yurei?" asked Kai.
Yurei quite literally ant Haunted in Japanese, although it could also an Ghost.
"Sounds good enough, Yurei, please, turn back into a 'normal' house for now," said Frank.
"Guuuuuooon…!" groaned Yurei, the entire house then assembled itself back to normal, and even its eerie presence disappeared as if it were never haunted, to begin with.
"Eh? It's… gone!" said Gwendolyn.
"Yeah, it felt like it never was haunted…" said Annabelle.
"Woah… Yurei is good at pretending to be a normal house," said Cathyl.
"True enough…" said Asterion.
"S-Should we go back to sleep now?" asked Hilvera.
"I am sleepy…" said Kai.
"Yeah, I guess I am done here as well, I might raise more Undead in the coming days, unlike the monster plants, Undead are imdiately loyal to when I raise them, so making up an army of them wouldn't hurt," said Frank.
"And where are you even saving that big army?!" asked Gwendolyn.
"Inside of my shadow, of course. …Although I need to find a way to make a better spell at that," said Frank.
"Fehehe… Frank, let's go to bed together… Don't be rough on , okay~?" said Vheslia, she was still very drunk and was talking incoherencies.
"Eeeh?! What did she say?" roared Kai, her black hair suddenly began to float due to the strong pressure she was emanating!
"Kai, calm down…" said Frank with a bitter smile.
After a brief discussion, Frank finally gave himself the ti to go to sleep.
The mont Frank managed to fall asleep completely, he was instantly sent to Abraddon's Divine Realm, where he t the Beast God and Thineas, the Goddess of Life.
Frank had decided to train so of his Skills with his Light Clone, while he would be doing a few experints with his main body, which he quickly told the Gods about.
"Hunting… Domain? What do you an?" asked Abraddon in surprise.
"Can you really do such a thing, Frank?" asked Thineas.
"Well yes, I believe I should be capable of… At least I can try," said Frank.
"Yeah, but what do you even an?" asked Abraddon still confused.
"A Hunting Domain is a special space that I can create, it is an ability related to my original world where most people are capable of creating these spaces through the borrowed power of the Earth. In them, negative energies and other things are gathered, and special types of monsters appear, which often drop an item na Magic Crystal, fairly different than this world's Mana Core, and at the sa ti very similar… I have already used it on the surface of Terra, and it seems to work simply fine. Even though I am not on Earth anymore, my System sohow made this special ability that should only work in Earth a Skill that I can use anywhere," said Frank.
"I see… Well, feel free to try, although this space is very different and not a physical plane," said Abraddon.
"Indeed… but do give it a shot," said Thineas.
"Alright then! Domain Creation!" said Frank, raising his right hand and activating the Skill, as a flash of light erged from it!
Flash!
Suddenly, the space around the Divine Realm started to distort, and Abraddon and Thineas imdiately noticed this.
"Eh? The place around just distorted?!" asked Abraddon.
"Amazing, it feels as if we were sent elsewhere, yet we are still here… This ability seems to be able to overlap with the Spatial Layers, and it even… creates so kind of pocket dinsion within them that copies the space it is used over almost 100%!" said Thineas, being the goddess of life didn't an that she didn't know about Space.
"It worked… Sohow," said Frank, noticing that space had indeed distorted and he was now elsewhere… The thing is, the Gods ca with him.
"Eh?" he said glancing at them.
"Oh, were we not supposed to co?" asked Thineas.
"We just got dragged into it…" said Abraddon.
"Well, it's fine… Although I am pretty sure that I cannot share the System with you guys… yet," said Frank.
"Oh no, don't worry about us, we'll just stay as bystanders," said Thineas.
"Yeah, do whatever you want- Huh? That one animal looks very strange…" said Abraddon, as he noticed a large lion walking out of the nearby jungle… its eyes were crimson red, and it had a crimson mane and even fla-shaped tattoos around its fur.
"Indeed, is that a monster? So Monsters can appear even in Divine Realms if this thing is used!" said Thineas.
Frank quickly glanced at the beast approach, a large, three ters tall lion that was breathing fire, leaping towards Frank imdiately after spotting him!
"GROAR!"
Flash!
An enormous breath of flas was exuded from the great beast, covering Frank!
Boom!
"Eh?! Frank, are you ok?" asked Abraddon.
"He's fine, he actually took the hit to experint," said Thineas.
"I am fine, I was just experinting things out, after all, this is not my physical body but my soul. And just as I imagined, the damage did decrease my HP, but it also made feel a slight pain in my soul, whenever I am here, the damage done to will be done to my soul… Although my HP might recover back, my soul does so very slowly. Thankfully, Skills such as Fire Resistance do help with this," said Frank, as he evaded the Fire-Breathing Lion's blazing claw attack, and then created a spear of purple ice, impaling the creature instantly and killing it in one hit!
Poof!
The creature turned into black smoke, as it left behind a Magic Crystal and even other items such as a potion, and even a Skill Book!
"Oooh, are those the items?! Amazing, he can just generate them!?" asked Abraddon in surprise.
"Indeed, as long as the monsters are part of his Domain, it seems that he can generate items by defeating them, impressive… Frank, do items drop when you kill monsters in Terra?" asked Thineas.
"No, they don't drop items at all… This must an that this effect of my system only affects these types of monsters," said Frank.
"Interesting… Well, keep fighting around to your heart's content," said Thineas.
"Yeah, take it easy," said Abraddon, resting over a bed of flowers with his sister at his side.
Frank nodded at the gods who seed like his parents to an extent, as he kneeled and grabbed the items, saving them on his Inventory and inspecting the book.
"Blazing Claw? This Skill might be good for Ruby… Well, it might be good for everyone I guess? I better save it for now," thought Frank, as he moved around the large Hunting Domain, quickly finding another monster.
It seed that the Hunting Domain of this Divine Realm was nad 'Ancient Jungle Labyrinth', and the monsters that appeared inside were most of the animals inside of Abraddon's Divine Realm, but turned into monsters.
More blazing lions ca for Frank, as he quickly intercepted them with his Ice Spear which combined with Dark Death Devil Magic turned into purple, nad Nether Ice, being stronger and more precise.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Two more Lions were out, poofing out of existence and leaving so valuable items which Frank quickly grabbed back, moving around the vast jungle, and finding more large creatures, such as colorful birds that controlled wind or furious panthers that controlled shadows.

Frank Comntary on Yurei's status:
"What is wrong with Yurei's stats?! Is she an End Ga Boss or what?! Well… she's a house so I guess what she can do offensively is limited, and I am pretty sure that she can't move yet… And when you put into consideration that she is a literal giant house possessed by at least over fifty Souls combined together… I guess these stats make so kind of sense… I wonder what would happen to the house if Yurei evolves…"
